French Café - Regional Dish Presentation

Yesterday our 8th grade completed their final French presentation of the year. They were each assigned a region of France and were asked to explore it's geography, climate, and local exports. Once they found this information, each group was required to research a traditional recipe, prepare it at home, and serve it to their class explaining why they choose their particular dish. We were joined by Mrs. Figaro, Mrs. Santangelo, and Mrs. Calcagno who were treated to crêpes, cassoulet, pomme de terres Lyonnaise, Camebert, salad Niçoise, and une salade de pois chiches.
